Description

Long-term Care of Kidney Transplant Patients provides all aspects of long-term care of kidney transplant patients. Every chapter addresses its topics in depth, providing current thinking with a balanced approach towards managing various post-transplant clinical events which impacts long-term survival. Chapters address the importance of immunization against pathogens, family planning, reproductive health, cancer screening, travel and return to work after transplantation. They are critical for patients to be healthier, be productive, and contribute to the society in a meaningful way. Subsequent chapters focus on various late post-transplant events like cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, infections, tumors and recurrent and de novo glomerular diseases. Other chapters address specific populations which include - "Combined kidney with liver, Kidney with pancreas transplantation and Transplantation in children." "Importance of psychological and behavior issues after transplantation and Social determinants of health" are addressed in dedicated chapters. A separate chapter provides clinicians insight into understanding how to manage these patients as well. The final chapter is dedicated on "Transplant Tolerance" - which remains "The Holy Grail" for Transplantation. This book is a valuable resource for all clinical transplant physicians and surgeons, primary care physicians and various specialists who are caring for kidney transplant patients. It will also benefit other healthcare providers such as pharmacists, psychologists, advance nurse practitioners, pharmaceutical and diagnostic companies, and agencies involved in kidney transplantation. Many of the chapters also highlight unmet needs relevant to certain post-transplant events that influence survival. Chapters provide clinicians and researchers with opportunities to investigate and advance the science by performing studies than can alter the trajectory of specific post-transplant diseases which will improve long-term kidney survival further until we achieve "Transplant Tolerance."
